Excisability of photographic film: films from cutting, slitting and perforation of jumbo rolls treated as manufacture, excisable. Photographic films produced by cutting, slitting and perforation of jumbo rolls constitute a manufacturing process and are excisable goods. The sequence of operations-slitting into 35 mm rolls, perforation, printing of frame numbers/trade marks/bar codes, trimming, winding onto spools and assembly into cartridges-converts an intermediate jumbo roll into a finished product ready for use. Tariff identity between jumbo rolls and finished film does not preclude excisability; such films shall be treated as excisable and leviable to Central Excise duty.
